What? Too cheap for you? Ive tried about 15 different soaps, this works the best, gets car super clean, feela like it was just waxed, and you dont have to scrub real hard for the bugs and tar, road grime that collects on the bottom areas of the bumpers and side panels. Shit almost wipes right off.

Cheap? More like WAY too expensive. Technique, time of day and using soft water are more important than which soap to use. I've got some Meguairs stuff I got off the shelf at Wal-Mart and I guarantee you my car looks as good or better than yours does with the expensive stuff.
If anyone is washing their car in direct sunlight using hard water, it doesn't matter if your soap in $1000 bucks an ounce, it still won't look good.
Soft water, in the shade, washing panel by panel rinsing each panel as you go is the best way to do it.

I do all the shit you do, Im not a moron. Lol
As for comparing our cars, your car is brand new almost, if you had a car you had since new in the 80s you could compare to the porsche. It shines better than most newer cars that arent waxed every month. Last time it was waxed was 5 years ago i think.

First of all, anyone can see factory paint is horrible and needs to be buffed down and smoothed.
Secondly, you saw my 93 Cobra and it was cleaner than most.

Factory Ford paint, yes, it looks like it was put on with a mop. Factory paint on the C6s looked pretty f'in good. Porsche and BMW/MB even better.
